Summary:
The Oaklyn Public School District in New Jersey is home to a single elementary school, Oaklyn Public School, which serves students from grades K-6. While there are no other elementary schools in the district to directly compare it to, the available data suggests that Oaklyn Public School is facing some challenges in terms of academic performance and student attendance.
Oaklyn Public School's ranking has been declining in recent years, going from 714 out of 1,338 New Jersey elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 678 out of 1,342 schools in 2022-2023. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally lower than the state averages, with only the 5th-grade Science proficiency rate slightly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9%, which could be a contributing factor to its academic performance.
While the school's spending per student of $16,778 is higher than the national average, it's unclear if this spending is being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes. The school also has a higher proportion of students from low-income families, with 26.67% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Further investigation may be needed to identify the root causes of these issues and develop strategies to improve the school's performance and support its students.
